One by one, 120 volunteers took turns on a single bicycle to power a 1500 LED reindeer billboard in Vancouver, BC. The holiday showcase, sponsored by DDB/Vancouver and BC Hydro (hydro is a Canadian term for power or electricity), was powered solely by the cycling samaritans for 5 days straight.

Don't be daft. Hydro is not "a Canadian term for electricity" it's the short form for "hydro-electric" (from Greek, Hydor) B.C. Hydro has 30 water powered electric generators. Hence the name.
